Human bodies don’t just burn into ash like a tree branch. If they died in the fire, there will be discoverable remains

How many bodies were identified in the Dresden fire storm in 1944?

Please all you WWII historians on FR, I know my history and it was war, and I disagree vehemently that Churchill was a war criminal.

He did everything to win the war.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Be a shame if Oprah and Mark suddenly “disappeared.”

How many were identified in Coventry, and Rotterdam, and Warsaw, and in all those Belarusian villages that were torched like in "Come and See"?

How are 1000 dead important when Chomo Joe almost lost his 67 Corvette from a lightning strike?

[Delta 21]

If I didnt know this crap was scripted I would have to say that THIS CRAP IS SCRIPTED. Its going exactly as the libs want.

[EEGator]

We’re these the Jew lasers a female Republican spoke of?

You are correct the nazi's started the destruction.

[just me]

Did they identify people when they touched Waco?

[Karliner]

Like the Twin Towers?

Intense, concentrated burns over a long period of time is not the same as a fast-moving brush fire.

Talk to a mortician.

[sjmjax]

Resign? Prosecution sounds better and more appropriate.

[McGavin999]

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. May God bless those who are lost and comfort their loved ones. I can’t even imagine the horror they went through.

[chopperk]

The Marxist Dem Gov’t isn’t interested in finding people, they just want to purchase their property for pennies.

[blueunicorn6]

Containers of ashes should start showing up at press offices.

Then why after almost 3 weeks 1000 people are still missing?

Churchill (whom I greatly admire) was not a war criminal and neither was Roosevelt (whom I didn’t). The Dresden bombing was horrific; and, perhaps, unnecessary: But, as you say, it was war, and not unusual. The same could be said about the fire bombing of Tokyo: Horrific; but not unusual in war.

[woodbutcher1963]

Many of those 2500 people were just “missing” because they could not be contacted by their loved ones because there was no cell phone service in NW Maui for several days.

Anyone who escaped north of Laihina was basically off the grid for several days.

Many of the people that perished in the fire were burned beyond recognition. Their dental office records may have too been destroyed by the fire. Hence the DNA requests. It was so hot that cast steel engine blocks in automobiles were melted/altered by the fire. I am not sure what that temperature was to melt cast/steel. So, that is why there may not be any remains of some of the victims. Not even teeth.

“Then why after almost 3 weeks 1000 people are still missing?”

Fires leave a hell of a lot of debris.

[dfwgator]

Germans wanted “Totaler Krieg” and they got it.

[Delta 21]

Didnt hear that part.

I have been just shaking my head waiting for the other shoe to drop. NORK shenanighans, or China sinking Taiwan or Putin Nuking somewhere, anywhere, it doesnt matter...
